Hooked pulling front wheels then spun

LOL. Yep. Primarily to me means it also affects bump (compression for the technical types) and it sure does change the bump.

If you can only control rebound, you can only control the hit the tire sees.

It's a tough deal. Calvert doesn't do a very good job explaining how to tune with them for sure.

Yeah I agree. I'll be going to Viking double adjustables next year just wasn't in the budget for this year.

I spoke with a tech at Calvert yesterday and told him my set up and what the car was doing. He said to try them on 8. If that doesn't work go to a 9 setting. He said the higher the setting the longer it takes the shock to separate. He said if I go with an 8 setting it will either fix the problem or take longer for the tires to unload. ( meaning they would unload farther down the track or not at all)

I will have a chance to test and tune at Dinwiddie VA on Sunday after I get through the tech line. I'm going to try these shocks on 8 and see what happens. I also bought some spring clamps yesterday so I can re-clamp the rear of the springs if changing the shock settings doesn't get this thing to hook.
